I have tried several times to get JPDeni's "Spreadsheet" mod to work on my unchanged version of DBMan, however each time, it says that there is an internal error.

I don't know exactly where to start, so I am going to post my html.pl public in the drive. It will be located at http://www.eosgrad.com/listings/html.pl

I can't figure it out. Can someone help me? I have tried inserting several times and I just can't seem to get it to work, and I am not exactly sure what I should put here to get you the information you need to help me.

Thanks!

Hi,

without any error message, I think there will be not much help. Can you check perl syntax of that file and view the logfile in the webserver?

Cheers,

Look at the subject "Internal error" posted just below here for a tip on how to get a report on the errors.

Thanks for getting the error posting working....! This is what I get, and I don't understand it!

Thanks for any help!

Please preview your postings to ensure that they are correctly formatted!

The error messages point very clearly to errors in your .cfg file and your html.pl file, but without seeing them, we cannot help further (no need to post them, though!)

Check the directory settings and then look for syntax errors in the html.pl in the areas indicated by the line numbers. It is bound to be something very simple.

I assume you are using a proper text editor, like EditPlus or EditPad Lite?

If not, then download it NOW.

I don't understand what this error message means though:

DBMan worked before I started making these changes which probably proves that all over the libraries were available. I am also using PICO as my main editing program.

Thanks for any help you can provide! Here are the files located in my directory:

The first thing I see is that your html.pl file is very badly wrong!

You are using an editor that converts the < and > characters into "&lt;" and "&gt;". This is the sort of thing that MS FrontPage has a nasty habit of doing!

You must use Global Replace (carefully) to change all these back, then try again.


The db.cgi file that you linked to was, in fact, your error message printout.


I have not had a chance to look at your cfg file yet, but you should be able to do that, and check that the server paths are all correct.

You have not registered your email address in your profile, so I cannot send you an email.

Contact me at david@afil.co.uk and I will email you a corrected version of your html.pl file.
